--STAIND - FAILING--
This is my first time putting the chords on this site. I also have the electric version
on here, minus the lead. I'm almost 100% positive on the verses and chorus, but the
rest, not too sure.
Tuning: Standard (yes, these chords can be played in standard. If you've already detuned
a half step, just put a capo on the first fret if you have one. Or you can just
transpose them up a fret.)
INTRO:
D F#m D A
VERSE 1:
D F#m D A
Yeah, like the threat of the darkest clouds rolling in
On a sunny day.
D F#m E F#m
Yeah, like a field that has no rain.
D F#m D A
Yeah, like a dog that wanders aimless
With no name.
D F#m D F#m
Yeah, like a cut without the pain.
PRE-CHORUS:
D F#m E
(Yeah) You couldn't feel this!
D F#m E
You couldn't take the pain!
D F#m E
(Yeah) You couldn't live this!
CHORUS (words in parentheses implied but not sung):
D F#m E F#m D A
And I'm just trying to get through to you,
E
But I am failing.
F#m D A
(You) lie like I'm not even here.
E
My heart is breaking.
F#m D A
(I'm) trying to see through your stare.
E
It looks right through me.
F#m D A
(I) smile and pretend I'm not there,
E
To keep from going crazy.
INTERLUDE:
F#m E (x2)
VERSE 2:
D F#m D
Yeah, like the day that your guardian angel
A
Decided to fly away.
D F#m E F#m
Yeah, like a bruise that doesn't fade.
D F#m D
Yeah, like a memory that tortures your soul
A
Until your dying day.
D F#m E F#m
Yeah, like a life you couldn't save.
